Dead and wounded in intense Israeli raids targeting the Lebanese army and various areas

The intensity of the Israeli aggression on Lebanese territories escalated on Tuesday, as intense airstrikes resulted in the martyrdom of six people, including a member of the Lebanese army. The attacks focused violently on the Nabatieh Governorate and areas in the South and the capital Beirut. Field sources confirmed that the town of Jmaijmeh witnessed the fall of two martyrs due to a direct targeting, while warplanes continued to bomb civilian homes and infrastructure.

The Lebanese army mourned one of its soldiers who succumbed to severe injuries sustained earlier, following a raid that targeted a vehicle and a motorcycle he was riding with four of his colleagues in the Qaaqaiyet al-Jisr area in the Nabatieh Governorate. This incident joins a series of targetings that have affected the Lebanese military establishment in recent days, leading to human losses among soldiers while performing their duties.

In the city of Bint Jbeil, an airstrike targeting a populated house led to the martyrdom of three citizens and the injury of others with varying degrees of wounds. The bombing also hit a commercial cooperative on the road between Burj Qalaouiyeh and Ghandoorieh. These attacks left widespread destruction of property and residential buildings, amid the continued low-altitude flight of reconnaissance and drone aircraft in the region's skies.

The capital Beirut was not spared from the escalation, as warplanes launched a series of raids on the Southern Suburb, specifically targeting the Jammous and Laylaki areas. The old airport road in the Burj al-Barajneh area also came under a third raid, causing panic among residents and the rise of smoke plumes that covered the sky of the area due to violent explosions.

Local sources reported that Israeli artillery shelling did not stop on the towns of Zibqin, Jabal al-Butm, Arayd, and Marjayoun, in addition to the outskirts of the border town of Ayta al-Shaab. This shelling coincided with airstrikes targeting the towns of Kharayeb, Taybeh, Kafr Tibnit, Ayteet, and Jibshit, which led to the severing of roads between southern villages and isolating some areas from their surroundings.

In another field development, drones carried out precise attacks using guided missiles, targeting a motorcycle at the eastern entrance of the town of Doueir, resulting in the injury of its driver. A similar attack occurred at the Wadi intersection in the town of Deir al-Zahrani, targeting another motorcycle, and ambulance teams transported the injured from the scene to nearby hospitals for treatment.

The areas of Qusaybeh, Abba, and towns surrounding the districts of Tyre and Bint Jbeil witnessed a series of successive raids that led to the complete destruction of buildings and severe material damage to public facilities. Clashes and intermittent shelling continue on the southern and central axes, amid occupation attempts to establish new advanced points within Lebanese territories.

On the military front, the Israeli occupation army announced the deployment of new reinforcements to the northern front, with the 36th military division joining the ongoing ground operations. This move aims to expand the scope of the incursion into southern Lebanon, amid reports indicating that Israeli forces have reached a depth of between 7 and 9 kilometers in some border axes.

This field escalation comes the day after Israel officially announced the start of a new phase of ground operations, which was met with fierce resistance on the ground. These movements coincide with intensified airstrikes that have not spared any area in the South, reaching the Beqaa and the Southern Suburb, in an attempt to exert direct military pressure.

Official statistics issued by the Lebanese authorities indicate that the total toll of the aggression has exceeded 880 martyrs, with thousands of civilians injured since the start of the latest escalation. Military operations have also caused an unprecedented wave of displacement, with more than one million Lebanese forced to leave their homes and seek refuge in safer areas or overcrowded shelters.

Relief and medical teams face extreme difficulties in reaching targeted areas due to continued shelling and targeting of main roads. Humanitarian organizations warned of the worsening living and health crisis amid a severe shortage of basic resources, as Israel continues to target vital and civilian facilities in various Lebanese governorates.

The Lebanese army announced the martyrdom of one of the injured soldiers who succumbed to wounds he sustained with 4 of his colleagues in an Israeli raid in the Qaaqaiyet al-Jisr area.
